“Scene is a hotel bedroom, with fire escape visible through the window. It is disclosed in conversation between fresh bellboy and man occupant of the room that egress in case of fire is through the room for everybody on that floor. […] Of course, there’s a fire and Miss Carr appears, attired in a pink silk nightie. Picture! This is made the basis of much tearing around and loud talk. It appears that the girl and man are engaged but have just had a lover’s quarrel. Their predicament brings about a reconciliation, when the man wraps himself up in the rubber sheet from the shower bath.”
